Menendez indictment revives concerns over money and influence in politics ...Middle East

The federal indictment of Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) on bribery charges represents an important moment to examine the role money plays in politics, say ethics experts concerned with the way Washington works. The New Jersey Democrat is facing allegations that he and his wife accepted “hundreds of thousands of dollars” in bribes. In exchange, he allegedly used his influence to protect three New Jersey businessmen and benefit the government of Egypt. He pleaded not guilty, as did his wife and the businessmen. Menendez has characterized the “baseless” charges as part of a “smear campaign” against him. Previous and separate federal corruption charges against Menendez were dropped in 2018
